SWEET: Green beer! And green shot glasses given as party favors.
SOUR: Here's the thing about green beer. It's green! Go figure. It's pretty obvious GIVEN ITS COLOR. But still, it does not stop random bar patrons from continually feeling the need to point out to you that you are, in fact, drinking green beer. To this, I say, no shit. Annoying Bar Man last night kept saying things like, "Oooooh, I don't know how yall drink that green beer!" (in your head, imagine a large bald man with a mustache and a low, gruff voice). News flash: "Green beer" is normal beer with green food coloring. It tastes the same, douchebag! One of his other comments went something like, "Yall're gonna be glowing after you drink that green beer! Arg!" For some reason this guy randomly turned into pirate. I'm not sure why this was, but at one point he "Argh"-ed so loud that I jumped. The man on the other side of us (picture a mullet) just kept looking over and shaking his head. Conversation:
Man: "What do you put in there to make it green?"
Me: "The luck of the Irish." (Not smiling)
I fake-laughed SO many times yesterday that by the time we left, I told Sarah I could not muster up another. Diane can call me out the moment I do a fake laugh, even if it's early in the evening. To strangers, it's not so obvious ... but by the end of THAT bar experience, I wasn't even trying -- I wasn't even SMILING. I would just go, "Huh huh."
SOUR: I forgot my work ID badge AGAIN. The security officer, I think, has lost all hope for me.

I am so tired of random drunk men trying to start up conversations when we are whining to each other: "This is amazing soup!" "What do you get if you combine a rhino and an elephant?" Etc.
Very annoying.
I think they should have to ask permission to enter into the conversation.
Then again, I've been the annoying conversationalist so many times I should not promote banning the practice.
BTW. Friday? What are you gals doing? I might come to Ltown.
Woo! Possible puff paint party.
